Endotrakeal preoklusif lipom: Nadir bir trakeal tıkanıklık nedeni

Malign trakeobronşial sistem tümörlerinin aksine solunum yolları selim tümörleri nadir görülen tümörlerdir. Bu yazımızda, uzun zamandır astım tedavisi almakta olan sigara içicisi bir hastayı sunuyoruz. Hasta acil servise son zamanlarda artan nefes darlığı ve egzersizle erken yorulma şikayetleri ile başvurdu. Yapılan çok kesitli bilgisayarlı tomografi ( ÇKBT) incelemesinde proksimal trakeada hava sütununda ileri derecede daralmaya neden olan, -93.6 Hounsfield Unit (HU) ölçülen endotrakeal lipom ile uyumlu homojen düzgün konturlu lezyon saptandı.

Benign tracheobronchial tumors are rarely found as masses and are unlike malignant lesions of the tracheobronchial system. We report a male patient who was a smoker and had been under longterm treatment for asthma. The patient came to the emergency room with a late onset of shortness of breath and tiring earlier when exercising. On a multidetector computerised tomography (MDCT) scan the patient was found to have a proximal endotracheal tumor causing a severe narrowing of the tracheal lumen and measuring -93.6 Hounsfield Unit (HU) compatible with endotracheal lipoma
